You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Re: Teenage angst....
Personally, no I don't. I think you would be interfering and, assuming you liked these two young people, lose one or both as friends. I would have thought the days of playing goosebery were past in 21st century England.Gooner Girl wrote:

Re: Teenage angst....
He asked me to try and find out what she thought of him. Was hard to say no though it makes me feel like i'm back in the playground aged about 12. Wouldn't say either of them are close friends but i take your point!

Explain to him that no girl would respect a man who asks someone to curry favour, discovers confidences and reports them back.Gooner Girl wrote:He asked me to try and find out what she thought of him.

The answer is really quite simple. Tell him to ask her out. If she says 'yes', he can go and enjoy himself (at least for a brief while until her parent, who may be less forgiving, finds out or she discovers his vacillating nature). If however she says, as has happened to me, that she would rather be raped by sixty syphilitic apes than go out with him, he should maintain his dignity, say politely that he hopes she gets her wish and retire. Then is the time to set ones sights on other fish (hopefully not you) of which there are many.

Re: Teenage angst....
I'd kick him in the deep end - if he likes her, tell him to ask her out as Monty said. If she doesn't reciprocate, he has to get over it.

ffs Gooner. You have always seemed a bright lady .... but you have agreed to help a 20yr old largely inadequate/emotionally immature 20yr old lad try to connect with a 15yr old girl. What is it you aren't seeing here ?
It's safe enough in that she will not want anything to do with him by all else you've said ...but in case that's not how it works and she says "hey, yeah !" then I suggest you get one of those re-inforced doors that drug dealers fit, as her dad will be after your blood.
If you give him ANY advice it should be to look a little nearer his own age ... but really you should just walk away & not get any further involved.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Re: Teenage angst....
He did ask her out and she said yes apparently but then blocked him on facebook for something before they could arrange a date (i'm not sure what,am not entirely sure he gave me the full story) I did tell him (gently) that if she'd blocked him on fb it was a fairly big hint she didn't want to speak to him (given the only other times he sees her is when she comes to pick up horse feed from the pet store) Perhaps i should have been more clear he had no hope and not agreed to talk to her but he kinda caught me on the hop before i really had time to think about it.Montreal Wanderer wrote:Explain to him that no girl would respect a man who asks someone to curry favour, discovers confidences and reports them back.Gooner Girl wrote:He asked me to try and find out what she thought of him.

Re: Teenage angst....
Tell him to sneak on the school grounds during recess or playtime whatever you call it and confront her. Or maybe he can get some tips from Gary Glitter.
Seriously though, the girl is 15 years old and he's 20. It sounds like he has issues, so how can you even concider condoning this. Most likely the girl is a normal 15 yr old girl, so why try to potentially screw her up by promoting a relationship with a 20 yr old that isn't entirely normal. What happens if it f#cks up. What happens if he gets his feelings mixed up and rapes her, won't you be sharing some legal responsibility by introducing an adult to a minor. Isn't being a 15 yr old girl tough enough in this day and age.
